Pumpkin Toffee Cookies

One October, my friends and I decided we were going to try to hit every haunted house in town. It was fun at first; we were scared out of our minds! But my the 10th haunted house, we noticed that there were certain scare tactics that all houses offered up. There was always a guy in a mask with a chainsaw, a bloody torso, crazy women in a bedroom, a few zombies, and an ax murder or two. It all got a little boring, a little humdrum. After that year, Halloween like haunted houses completely lost their appeal.

Watch How To Make This Recipe:

As a parent, Halloween took on new meaning. It became finding the cutest costume to stuff my kids into or getting the obligatory pumpkin patch family picture. It’s about school parties, crafts and fun holiday treats. While I’ve never been into making orange and black or spooky treats; I have always loved baking with pumpkin! I love these pumpkin cupcakes and these pumpkin mousse trifles, but these pumpkin toffee cookies have quickly become a family favorite!

These cookies are super soft, cake-like cookies with pumpkin flavor abounding. Chocolate covered toffee bits fill each bite while a sweet white chocolate drizzle dresses each cookie. These tender cookies are more like a decadent dessert than simply a little cookie!

Instructions

In a mixer, cream together butter and sugars until creamy. Add the egg, pumpkin and vanilla. Slowly add in the flour mixture, mixing until combined. Add toffee bits. Drop cookies onto lined baking sheet using a tablespoon. Bake about 10 minutes. Let cool on baking sheet for 2-3 minutes before removing to a wire rack. When cookies have cooled completely, drizzle on white chocolate. Let the chocolate set before storing.

I agree…baking is such a stress reliever for me too!!! Of course then I usually eat most of what I eat:-) I enjoy soft and chewy cookies the most, so I love how good yours look!! Toffee bits are always in my cupboard because I love what they do for baked goods!!!

How gorg are these, girl?! I love pumpkin + just started my pumpkin baking yesterday. I’m so excited for fall! Never thought to add pumpkin and toffee but I think that’ll become my new fave combination!

Those sound like a yummy fall cookie! I really hope you find the right buyer soon. My friend just went through the same process and took most of the summer but their right buyer did come and closed without a hitch!

I imagine these are fantastic. Definitely pinning this! Found you via Weekend Potluck. I would really love for you to share this recipe at my new seasonal fall-themed link-up. It runs all month and just opened! Thanks so much!

There’s a little bonus to relieving house seller’s stress by baking: It makes your house smell wonderful. If you take those cookies out of the oven just before a showing, I’m willing to bet the folks viewing your house will be smiling all the way through!
